Mine is bigger than yours

The Scotsman reports:
"THE owners of the trouble-hit Glasgow Science Tower have admitted that they have no idea when it will reopen.
The £10 million malfunctioning tourist attraction closed six months ago after being plagued by a string of problems, which on one occasion saw ten people rescued from its lift by firemen.
The 416ft tower is Scotland's tallest free-standing structure and the only tourist attraction in the world that can rotate 360 degrees. However, since opening in summer 2001, it has been bedevilled by mechanical failures, meaning it has not been open for longer than six months at a time."

A symbol of the phallic obsession and the ultimate impotence of the late unlamented Glasgow Development Agency.
